Quilceda Creek
Galitzine Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Amazingly fresh & expressive, very Brunello’esque with some Balsamico notes, a bit of tomato leaf, black currant leaf, but also some ripe black fruit. Amazing energy here!
Incredible nose, just insane!
On the palate this is nicely evolved, with mid weight, brilliant balance and freshness.
The tannin management is impeccable- fine, dusty, so delicate yet with the proper grip. Dusty, cocoa’s with a hint of savoury mocca.
6h decant and this is in the perfect spot.
A truly stunning wine.

Ok, I’m sheltering in place. Why not drink the good stuff. Wonderful aroma, deep deep dark fruit, earth ,vanilla . Mid pallet and long finish. Just a delicious wine.

Jul 26th, 2019Absolutely wonderful. It is worth the money! Used an aerator then let it sit for about an hour. No obvious detectable tannin, with amazing balance.
